Act II



SCENE NINE

A TOKEN OF MY EXTREME



Arriving at L. Ron Hoover's modernistic office cathedral ware-house

condominium complex, Joe is greeted by a pre-recorded message and

a dramatically illuminated image on a wall-sized TV screen...



L. RON HOOVER:

Welcome to the First Church of Appliantology!

The WHITE ZONE is for loading and unloading only!



Don't you be

Tarot-fied

It's just a token of my extreme

Don't you be

Tarot-fied

It's just a token of my extreme

Don't you never try to look behind my eyes

You don t wanna know what they have seen

Don't you never try to look behind my eyes

You don't wanna know what they have seen



JOE: (thinking to himself)

Some people think

That if they go too far

They'll never get hack

To where the rest of them are

I might be crazy

But there's one thing I know

You might be surprised

At what you find when ya go!



And thus, having rationalized his expedition to L. Ron's modernistic office

cathedral warehouse condominium complex, JOE seeks The Answer to

his problem...



JOE:

Oh oh oh

Mystical Advisor

What is my problem, tell me

Can you see?



L. RON HOOVER:

Well, you have nothing to fear, my son!

You are a Latent Appliance Fetishist, It appears to me!



JOE:

That all seems very, very strange

I never craved a toaster

Or a color T. V.



L. RON HOOVER:

A Latent Appliance Fetishist

Is a person who refuses to admit to his or herself

That sexual gratification can only be achieved

Through the use of MACHINES... Get the picture?



JOE:

Are you telling me

I should come out of the close
